Call for Applications: IAC Graduate and Predoctoral Fellowships
The UCLA Institute of American Cultures (IAC) is offering a limited number of graduate/predoctoral fellowships for 2024-25.

Terms of awarded fellowships may range from 1 to 3 quarters and will cover in-state tuition and fees plus a stipend of $6,000–$7,400 per quarter. The acceptance of a fellowship includes a commitment to contributing to the activities of the sponsoring Ethnic Studies Research Center.
